Rachelxtc Posted November 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Hello. About 2 years ago, I used to work in a retirement home. The ladies in the kitchen where I worked always told me about this plastic ice scoop that would randomly just pick up and fly across the room. I thought they were just messing with me until I witnessed it myself. I was in the kitchen one day. It was quiet. Just me and one other person who was no where near the oce scoop. All of a sudden, there it went flying across the room. It sat on top of the ice machine which was about 7 feet high. I was standing right next to it. It flew in a straight line, probably 15 feet across the room and then dropped at a 90 degree angle. Gravity didn't gradually pull it down. It just fell. After that, I saw it happen 3 or 4 more times. I have never been able to stop thinking about this. What are your thoughts? I would love to hear from someone. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Not A Rockstar Posted November 11, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Hi there and welcome to the forum. I would ask a dozen questions about it and try to explain how it was naturally caused if I had not seen similar once myself. I just accept what you say. Here is my story: It was shift change out at the airport I worked then for the Sheriff Dept., and four of us were talking at the office door as days was about leave and we were taking over for the night shift. Inside the empty office, about 15 feet away was our coffee pot. Had one of those big cans of ground coffee, what are they now? 3 Lbs? Anyway, we were talking and suddenly that can went airborne at us with real force, as if it had been kicked or the like from that table and hit the ground after flying about 8 feet or so and rolled from the force. We turned when we heard the bang as it was hit to make it fly at us (I guess? There was a bang of contact anyway). Days left and I set it back on the table and partner and I walked out to walk our first round, and nobody commented. What the heck do you even say? Some things are just out there and I don't care what anybody says, it happened, was no prank and I dunno know how. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachelxtc Posted November 11, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Not A Rockstar, thanks for the reply! Our stories sound pretty similar. Sounds like something threw that at you. How could that have happened naturally? I feel just like you do though. Not a prank. It happened. I wish I had more to tell. But that was it. Never saw anything other than that. Other employees talked about seeing things fly down the hallway at night time though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I have never seen anything so dramatic myself but I have heard enough serious reports by normal people to give your story very serious consideration. My thought is the spiritual world can be responsible for such things as you claim to have experienced. Join the thousands of other experiencers. I believe the paranormal exists based on the quantity, quality and consistency of claimants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openozy Posted November 11, 2018 #5 Share Posted November 11, 2018 My ex hated her neglectful mother,once when they were arguing a knife flew through the air and into the wall next to the mothers head,no one threw it.It didn't surprise anyone, the place was a total madhouse of hate and negativity.

Thank you. just curious if the last three letters of your name have anything to do with it at all. Seriously, someone is jerking your chain. Objects are not 'thrown' by ghosts...primarily because 'ghosts' do not actually exist. The laws of physics however do. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartan max2 Posted November 11, 2018 #8 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Yeah if the scoop keeps happening you should try to film it.if you're there all the time then it would be hard thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she actually saw that...it didn't float across a straight line...it 'flew' as she says...and fifteen feet..that means she saw it for about 1/2 a second.

They thought they would mess with some people...every now and then...they 'throw' the ice cream scooper via some triggered catapult device they came up with. That is a much more believable scenario that ....a ghost threw an ice cream scooper? Why would a ghost do that? Was he or she a former disgruntled employee...or was the ghost someone who was murdered with an ice cream scooper? Someone is jerking someone's's chains....lol. Either that or Rachel made the whole thing up. I'm guessing she didn't though. Edited November 11, 2018 by joc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drop a quarter from 7 feet...throw it in a curve that reaches 7 feet...it comes down just as fast. Edited November 11, 2018 by joc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First question: Did people see unnatural activity of the ice scooper or is it all hoax/viewer error. etc.. (My judgment based on everything I know about this story, people and the universe, it does seem more likely than not to me that unnatural activity has been observed) And then the next question would be: if it moved unnaturally what are some theories on how that could happen. A ghost thrower would be one theory. Ghost motive would require further theories under that. I'm trying to be serious here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Walt' E. Kurtz Posted November 11, 2018 #20 Share Posted November 11, 2018 (edited) In some weird way i do belive that such things can actually happen... if i was to become a ghost damn i would have fun :-D Edited November 11, 2018 by Avalanche 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
